Fog Light Retro-Fit?

MangoMan · 25th September 2011, 18:42

Hi, I was wondering if it is an easy job to fit standard Foglights to a 75 that has never had them, like a Classic?

Thanks in advance....... Bill.

Dead simple you need the lamps & surrounds & the bumper harness oh yeah & the switch front with front fog button. It's a bumper off job but the lamps just screw in & the bumper harness just plugs in to the grey plug on the N/S & the switch front unclips & unplugs

The actual lights and that I wasn't too concerned about as I would guess the plug socket should be under the Bumper, I was more worried about the actual switch inside the car. I pressume you just remove one unit and replace with the other?

Thanks again, Bill.

Aye but not the whole thing, just swap the actual switch panel part over as the main controller is matched to your car, if I'd had me camera I'd have photographed it to show you cos I have one in the car

On some early cars the oil cooler was different and prevented the fogs going in... I think...... innit? ....

The Fogs, if I get them will be of a W Reg V6 car aswell, so I don't see a problem....
